Bentley has revealed the Torcal, its first all-electric model and fourth current model line, built on the Porsche Cayenne Electric's 800-volt PPE platform. The SUV comes in Core and S trims, both using a 113.2 kWh battery rated for up to 375 miles WLTP range (about 320 miles EPA) and 400 kW fast charging. The S trim produces 888 PS and 996 lb-ft of torque, reaching 60 mph in 2.8 seconds and a top speed of 162 mph, while the Core does 0-60 in 3.3 seconds.

Porsche has launched Wireless Charging for its Cayenne Electric SUV, letting drivers park over a ground pad to begin charging automatically without plugging in a cable. The system pairs a pad under the vehicle with a weatherproof outdoor ground pad, delivering up to 11 kW at roughly 90% efficiency, and includes motion sensors and foreign-object detection to halt charging if an animal or metal object is detected. The feature is rolling out in stages and is currently orderable in Germany and other European markets.

Bentley let journalists ride in a heavily disguised preproduction version of its upcoming 2027 Torcal, an electric SUV built on the same platform as the electrified Porsche Cayenne. The vehicle features artificial exterior body panels and interior coverings to hide its true design, and despite being smaller than the Bentayga, it offers a notably spacious cabin and refined ride quality using off-the-shelf two-chamber air suspension.
